Venue: Pavilion Theatre Location: Ross-on-Wye, England, United Kingdom Date: August 21, 1999

In 1999, Van Morrison was riding high on his career, following the release of his album 'The Healing Game' in 1997, which showcased a more reflective and soulful side of his artistry. This live recording from the Ross International Festival captures Morrison's essence as he blends jazz, blues, and rock in a captivating performance.

His ability to draw on deep emotional wells in his performances is a testament to his artistry, making this live show particularly noteworthy. If you listen closely, you can feel the energy and connection he shares with the audience, echoing his commitment to authenticity and musical exploration during this vibrant phase of his work.
